Step 1: Eye Movement !

Well here you will learn the first and most important part of professional lying !

Eye Movement is what exposes 40% of liars and if you are smart and know how to recognize this you have a huge advantage over them.

Ok, let's begin :
1 When a person is Lying his eyes will role left , When a person is telling the truth his eyes usually role right ! Why ? When somebody is lying or telling the truth 2 different things happen in the brain !

A lie creates a left eye role because usually that's what happens when a person is accessing his front brain creative lobe the blue part of the brain shown in the image ! And When a person is telling the truth he's brain is accessing the back memory lobe (the red part) creating a right eye role !

These are natural reflexes of the human body and very few people know how to master them !
But trough practice you may learn how to control these movements and become a professional liar !

Step 2: Voice Levels !

If somebody's speech starts of slow and long and suddenly takes complete shape and makes total sense then that person is lying ! this is portrayed best in my video, but i will explain it here also !

1 Voice Volume , when i use CAPS LOCK then imagine the volume and speed of the voice is 30% higher : ( i wanted to tell him BUT HE JUST DIDN'T LISTEN TO ME ! )
the lower voice is because in that time he is thinking about the lie and how to shape it and when the CAPS go up then the lie is fluent and complete in his head ready to tell it 2 you !

"In case of a lie , the voice is less fluent at the beginning of a line "

Step 3: Body Language !

This may sound funny but most of liars cover there face in one way or the other without even noticing , this is done by the brain since it knows it's not telling the truth and some how attempting to stop the person from doing it !

-More than 60% of liars touch there faces while lying !
The most common thing is the scratching of the chin or nose with the small finger you may notice politicians do it all the time !

View a few pictures of the most common gestures of a liar :

Step 4: In the End !

A good lie always starts out with at least 20% of truth in it and ends in 20% of truth in it , that way the lie can be later cover`d even if the subject is suspicious ! EXAMPLE :

Dude i got a fast car , it can go 300/kmph , i got a turbo engine !
- the part "it can go 300/kmph" is a lie if the person later asks dude show me u can go that fast u can twist and say " no dude i told you i got a fast car and that i got a turbo engine and it might go as fast as 300 ! that way the person will simply think he misunderstood !

There are lots of ways to lie and to detect a lie ! I recommend not 2 since it's non`ethical and not nice but just in case you do need 2 lie , now you can do it the right way !

I recommend you watch my video for better understanding of all of this !
Thank you for your time !
Happy Lying !

Nicely made, but 3 steps are PURE fiction, untrue, debunked by science and unfounded without any tests showing validity anywhere. I didn't read the 4th step.

Some people are taught today and continue to believe that if someone that they are talking to, gazes upwards and to the left (your right); that they are lying to you. It's from the 1970s and called Neuro Linguistic Programming theory (NLP). NLP believes when we gaze up and to the left, we are creating or imaging. Supposedly, people only recall memories looking up to the right. This was never founded with scientific testing and found scientifically to be false independently in different countries; England, Ireland & later US, and probably more that I haven't sourced.

I am making an effort for 5min to help you make an honest effort to help put an end to this myth.

Police depts as well as the FBI who do interrogations have even put out publications in bulletins denouncing it as being NOT credible since June 2011

This is not about anyone personally, it is part of the human condition that many people PASS ALONG myths, rumors, tall tales, codes & rules to live by, that have never shown any validity or truth and just taken as gospel because someone seemingly trustful told them.

Gullible listeners/readers that don't check the validity of what they are being told, assume it to be truth and PASS it on again.

BTW: using "aka Machiavelli" doesn't help your cause, as it has been a common reference for hundreds of years for "lying or being deceitful" from the author N. Machiavelli and the book; "The Prince". (just more research for you).

ALL of the above can be found online or sourced to credible references with a simple google search. Don't believe everything that you read or hear, until you check it out for yourself (no matter who in your life gives you info)

Oh, and the last step, what if the guy recorded the conversation (I plan on doing it hehehehe)? The guy usually tries to conceal he's telling a lie, but that gives him away because it's just overdose. Any signs of shame = LIAHAHAHAR!!! lol, but some small things happen that you overlook, like a smirk or the guy keeps smiling (which is actually quite suspicious) or he goes "uuuuh" for a long time (which means he/she is a bad liar). Best way to lie is to predict all possible and I mean ALL possible scenarios when you answer a question. It's what I do. Something like, "let's see, what would I say.... OH there, and if this happens...." stuff like that. I'm good at lying. Oh, and last thing about spotting a lie: they try to get a curious-like look on their face when they lie to make it look like they don't know anything about it. Good Day!

Please, SOMEONE clear this up for me.
With the eye movement, are we talking about the listener's perspective or the liar's perspective? So, if the liar moves his eyes right, and the listener sees it as left, then that's a lie... and vice versa?
I'm so confused

um, you got your eyes backwards dude. It's the exact opposite. lying=right=creative part of brain, truth=left=visual cortex. Look it up, i think you just got mixed up from the perspective. adn im also quite sure that the two parts of the brain are divided by right/left side not fron/back.

in step 4, my friend would say "no, i know you said... because i never make anymistakes, but you dont seem to know what you say, look, i even have a witness that you said..." then he looks at a random person that wasnt even there, and somehow visually says "agree with me" and guess what, they agree. that guy has serious problems, i dont even know why im still his friend, anyways...

The eye rolls are backwards. The left eye rolls are lies and the right eye rolls are truth. You access different HALFS of your brain (left and right) not front and back. The right = left brain which is reason and the left = right brain which is fabrication and imagination.
